The Ideas of March
• Could someone please invent a tenpin bowling ball that doesn't rip your fingernail off? Or indeed one I could actually throw properly.
• Spring comes so early these days, doesn't it? I mean, there's even time for a bit more Winter afterwards now.
• It appears that millions of idiots will happily buy tap water just because Coca Cola plc puts it in a blue bottle, despite acres of negative press. Maybe I should make my fortune by quitting work and selling Eau de Bow instead.
• Ken, since when has St Patrick's Day been on March 14th? And may I please switch my next birthday from Wednesday to the weekend as well?
• Now that Matthew Kelly has finally left Stars In Their Eyes, could ITV please now stop repackaging karaoke as primetime Saturday entertainment? No, I doubt it either.
• The clocks really should have gone forward by now shouldn't they? In an ideal world it should be sunset at 7pm already.
• If you remove all the easy listening from this week's Top 20 album chart then there are only seven albums left. Looks like the Brit Awards finally killed British music dead.
• Why does the otherwise-reliable Updated UK Weblogs list regularly show certain weblogs as 'updated', but when you click and visit the 'updated' page it doesn't appear to have been updated at all? Just wondered.
• Bloody rucksacks on the tube. I always saw them as an inconvenience. Now, sadly, I'm trying very hard not to view them all with suspicion.
• More half-baked ideas at the halfbakery.
